Fire Ants are a growing problem in Middle Tennessee. The US Department of Agriculture has full or partial quarantines on agricultural products in more than half of Tennessee counties, including Davidson, Williamson and Rutherford counties.
Should I Worry?
Fire Ant mounts can disrupt your landscaping, and Fire Ant bites are painful, and can be dangerous. When threatened Fire Ant swarm and attack in packs, stinging repeatedly. A few bites are painful, but getting too close to a mound can result in hundreds of bites in very short period of time.
Do I Have Fire Ants?
Though fire ants can build their mounds in any type of soil, they prefer open, sunny areas such as lawns, parks, pastures, meadows and cultivated fields. Depending on the type of soil, mounds can be up to 18 inches high. They can also be formed in rotting logs, around stumps and trees and in or under buildings.
Moisture is key to fire ant survival. When the weather is hot and dry, they burrow deep into the soil to find moisture and cooler temperatures. When it's cold, they burrow down to stay warm. But in warm, damp weather (spring or fall), fire ants are most likely to be active, foraging near the soil surface and building mounds.
